Olive Tree Sponsorship

Description

Make a Smile “Winter Fuel & Food” campaign. The two most basic things in life!

By sponsoring an Olive Tree sapling on our farm project in Relleu for an investment of just 50 euros annually (less than a cup of coffee a week) we could ensure there is food on the table and funds for winter fuel. The local Emaus care homes need community support even more so than before. The homes (where temperatures can fall below zero in winter) are not allowed open fires or hot water bottles to keep cosy due to Health and Safety so we have to regularly buy gas to keep the homes warm. In addition our ‘food poverty’ campaign continues in order to enable us to purchase healthy, nutritious food for those in need. healthy, nutritious food for those in need.

For the past few years, our local children’s homes have been seriously short of funds for even the most basic needs.
At Make A Smile, we work with the community in raising funds and using these to supply a balanced diet and daily needs for 50 children in the Emaus group and a home with 24 mentally handicapped youngsters.
